      pretty cool but those seatbelts look dangerous, shoulder straps look to be mounted too low and could compress your spine in an accident. I would swap out the seats and fix that ASAP.

    Casey, not that way at all for a lot of people, badmouthing a dude in a dune buggy. I see one running around Franklin County in Pennsylvania and I totally dig it. He's living his best California retro life. And bro, c'mon, dune buggies were popularized by all those baby boomers lookin' for fun in the sun and the sand and anywhere they could roam in fun and freedom. So please give your elders the respect they deserve for that. And for that matter, the greatest decades of Indy were thanks to baby boomers and their parents, both in the stands and Gasoline Alley.

    bike tyres on the front would be ace for cars which camber a lot during a turn, like mercs for example.. like a couple of litre bike rears at 190 width - ive been wanting to get a rail for a few years, but not sure what kind of engine id put in in it - thought about sport touring bike engines but not sure the clutch would like hauling that much weight.. any idea what the whole thing weighs with and without your engine in it?

Many “boomers” watch your show and probably didn’t appreciate the way you referred to them. And what evidence did you have about the lady driving the black SUV was a Karen.
